Final Countdown

All good things come to an end. Our trip to visit your mommy’s family is nearing that point. Besides your early morning antics and you being the victim of abuse by your cousin, it’s been a good trip don’t you think?

Hopefully you’re not gonna be like this when we get back home. I also wonder if maybe you have another ear infection…Anyhow, enjoy your time here. You won’t see these until December. Which isn’t really that long, but for you it’s almost half your life. 

Gia Dinh Time

Sort of, mommy abandoned you most of the morning and didn’t want to nap with you when she got home, but you got to spend a lot of time with your family in general.

Grandpa and grandpa got to spend a lot of time with you. Hopefully they enjoyed it and it wasn’t a burden 😂. Not sure if you’ll remember these times, but I hope you’re at least enjoying them. As you get older they come fewer and farther between…

Traveling Boba

Boy, aren’t you just the globetrotter these days?

This is you at Aunty’s Daycare. You seemed to be doing well until you saw me…Honestly, you seem to be doing well in general except at night (especially when you’re sick). While we don’t have any experience to compare you to, I think we’re pretty lucky. It could be a lot worse. Keep calm and travel on Boba. We have a few more mini trips before we go home. Try to warm up to your family in Canada 🍁 faster.

Team Boba Milk Tea

Guess it’s just me and you today. Momma said she’s super tired, but not too tired to hang with your cousins. It’s okay, Daddy will give you all the attention he can to make up for it.

Yeah, I see that and I see you. Sorry you didn’t sleep well yesterday, but we’re gonna get you back on schedule. I hope it’s not an ear infection 🙏. 

Prayer and Faith

It’s always a mystery if God answered my prayer or if she intentionally didn’t for “a reason”. That’s where faith comes in, believing without proof. I’m not saying it’s bad to have faith. I’m saying you always need to pursue your own destiny and not rely on God to do it for you. 

But there are some things we can’t do on our own. So that’s where prayer and faith come in. Today you and I prayed for health (for everyone), an end to hatred, and everlasting life with God. Coincidentally, someone wrote on the other side of our prayer intention to win the lottery 😂. I did win $8. I may need to be more specific in the future or you can let God know.

Good Arrival

Hi there little guy. You did a great job on your journey to the east coast. Hopefully, that’s a good sign for your journey home in a week.

It was hard to get a good angle for you, but here you are taking your first Buffalo nap. Mom said I can put you in the crib, but between me and you, if I hold you I get to relax too 😉. Snore long my son. 

Comfy?

Sometimes I wonder if you’re comfortable when you sleep. I know they say that babies are very durable, but I wonder the best way sometimes to let you sleep. You sure pick odd positions.

Thanks for being good the first leg. Hope that you do as well on the shorter leg to Buffalo. You are too curious, took forever to get you to sleep.
